Water leak after exhaust mods
I have not run the ski since doing the TJ exhaust mod. Today I had them hooked up to the hose to make sure all was good to go after winter storage. Anyway the one I did the exhaust mid to had water in the bottom after running. Turns out I am leaking where the tube comes out the top of the water bix. Tighten the hose clamp a little more and still leaking. I know this isn't ricket science but what am I missing?

be sure you have pushed the hose that you cut the end off of all the way back down on the box, sounds like it is not totally down all the way to where the hose locks back in the groove on the box ,TJ

Turns out that I didn't have the band clamp around the top of the waterbox tight enough. Reads lots of posts about over tightening being a bad thing. Sure it is on rubber to rubber but the rubber to aluminum needed to be tight.
Thank you for your replies.
